I have never seen a vehicle that can benefit from 22" wheels more that the GC SRT8. I am aware of the fact that with wheels the further you move the weight from the center, the more power it takes to rotate the them. But just how much. Has anyone ever done any dyno testing of how much horsepower is actually lost by upsizing wheels. We may not admit it, even to ourselves, but it is not all about performance, we want our rides to look good too. You do not see anyone running 17" wheels on their GC for quicker times.
Does anyone that has upgraded to 22's on their ride (not necessarily a GCSRT8 since as far as I know only one GCSRT8 owner has upgraded to 22's) and also has access to a dyno and their original wheels have the time and energy to dyno test and find out the truth. I believe a lot of us would like to know if we are talking 12 to 15 horses or 30 or more.
What about it, anyone game?
